It helped pioneer the early use of the Dissenting Gothic building style, and encouraged renewed interest in the careful blending of earlier styles.
Tite noted that Hosking "wisely refused to recognise the modern distinction between the professions of architect and civil engineer" ["The Builder", 1861] - a distinction which has bedevilled both professions ever since. A comprehensive biography is long overdue. At least two lasting legacies to his work remain today - the Abney Park Chapel and Temple Lodges at Abney Park Cemetery in Stoke Newington.
